Mini Game
Adding a chess mini-game into Bumble's messaging feature is the perfect way to teach the importance of the first move. Challenge your matches to a game, and true to Bumble’s original trademark, women make the first move. To facilitate meaningful conversations, players can only move pieces after they’ve responded to their lover’s most recent message.
Social Media
Inspiring Bumble daters to make the first move will be a large part of this integrated copy-driven campaign. Instagram carousel posts will give tips on how to be successful in making the first move.
